Pour out your cup of troubles and dip it in the pool of God’s goodness, and the peace of Christ will fill your heart and guard your mind from every anxious thought.

We may not understand how the peace that surpasses understanding works, but we should understand what brings it to us. We are told to approach God with worship, make our requests, and surround them with thanksgiving. Worship focuses our thoughts on God, not our problems. Our requests put our problems in His hands, and  thanksgiving accepts His answer, even if it is to wait. I think He sends His peace to wait with us. “And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phil.4 Conversations Within” ts 1/12/2016
